Industrial Automation Software Accelerates DC's Shipping, Improves Accuracy, Increases Speed

October 18, 2016

Solution: Inovity implemented an innovative and expansive solution using intelligent industrial automation software.  Automation IQ™ (AIQ™) was able to connect numerous input/output points, process sub-second transactions, scan, divert, verify, sort, package, seal, label, weigh, re-verify and direct items for shipping, all without human intervention. The solution was installed concurrently with an elaborate, multi-level conveyance system and provided a fully-automated packing, sorting and manifesting system.

Results: Process automation software allowed client to eliminate 12 positions and repurpose workers to other high-demand areas. Automated sortation allowed for package grouping based on destination, postal or carrier, resulting in shipping discounts from major carrier. Connecting data from shipping and accounting systems improved customer service levels, allowing immediate tracking and status information. Access the full case study.
